An Angry Combeenation (Japanese: 琥珀の城のビークイン！ Beequeen of the Amber Castle!) is the 32nd episode of Diamond & Pearl. It first aired in Japan on May 3, 2007 and in the United States on October 13, 2007.
While attempting to enter the deepest area of the Eterna Forest, the group find a large waterfall that hides the entrance of a cave behind it. What is waiting for them deep inside the cave?
Synopsis
Ash and co., along with Cheryl, continue their quest for sweet honey. After roaming a bit they eventually meet some Combee which they follow and end up in front of a large spring. Behind the waterfall is a hidden cave which they locate followed by Team Rocket.
Inside the cave, it's a maze and after getting wrong directions for a while they luckily end up in the main core where the Combee hive is located. It's an amazing colony with Combee flying everywhere being ordered by a single Vespiquen. Cheryl acts bravely, and ignoring all the angry Combee, goes straight to Vespiquen and asks for a small jar of honey.
Unfortunately Team Rocket intervenes at this point. They want to steal away all the honey from the hive and crazily start to collect honey in buckets. Ash and his friends are afraid to attack since it may cause the colony to collapse. However the Combee attack Team Rocket and they strike back. This causes the colony walls to crack as a result of the battles.
Ash and co. try to help by blocking the cracks. Dawn's Buneary uses Ice Beam to seal the cracks but it does so in vain. At this point, things start to look really bad and suddenly Vespiquen steps in. She summons a massive, powerful Power Gem and strikes Team Rocket. Team Rocket is blasted off yet again.
With the Rockets gone, the Combee repair the cracks with their special honey. Vespiquen seems to trust Cheryl and presents her with the jar full of honey that she had asked for. Cheryl is really happy and shares the honey with everyone. All seem to love the taste except for Brock's Croagunk, who gags and spits the honey out. Everyone laughs at this.
The episode ends with Cheryl saying good-bye to the group and they part.

Trivia
- This episode is the last episode of a three-episode arc.
- Music from Lucario and the Mystery of Mew and Jirachi: Wish Maker is used as background music.
- Professor Oak's Pokémon lecture: Glameow
- Pokémon senryū: ニャルマーは しっぽくるくる にゃるまってる
As for Glameow, spinning tail, winding
- Rhonda of Sinnoh Now narrates the next episode preview.
- The Combeenation part of the title could refer to the Combee hive (a Combee nation) or from Combee and combination.
Errors
- Combee appeared to be able to use Psybeam whereas in the games, all they can know is Sweet Scent and Gust (there is a chance, however that this was just Vespiquen using Attack Order).
- Similar to the error made in the previous episode with Gardenia's mantle, Jessie's undershirt is animated with skin color making it seem as if she has no undershirt. This happens just after Team Rocket crashed into the Amber Castle and is harder to spot when not played in slow motion.
- When Meowth makes the comment that he can smell honey and that he has a nose. This contradicts to the episode Pokémon Scent-Sation! where Jessie and James say he doesn't have a nose.
